Managerial Decision-Making in an Era of Quantum Computing: The Application of Econophysics and Quantum Finance
Strategic managerial decision-making in a new era of quantum computing (“QC”) and Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) may become pivotal to the competitive edge of interconnected corporate success (Cavers, 2017; El Karoui, 2022; Klioutchnikov, 2017; Orrell, 2020). In recent years, traditional computing methods, driven by Moore’s Law and inundated with vast amounts of big data, have exhibited limitations in accurately predicting financial outcomes, particularly during periods of economic crises. Maverick (2024) indicates in Investopedia that the derivatives market is often estimated at over USD 1 quadrillion, and Investment Banks have allocated Billions of USD in derivatives market products alone. Therefore, QCs are being used by expert guided teams from some of the largest technology corporations and Investment Banks around the globe to solve some of corporate finance’s toughest problems (Orrell & Wilmott, 2021; Baaquie, 2023).
